Episode 65 - I Found a Diversion That Changed My Life and Ministry

In the midst of the relentless pace of life and ministry, finding a healthy diversion isn't just a luxury—it can be a lifeline. In this episode, Mary sits down with Jay as he shares how a simple practice—reading—became a powerful antidote to workaholism and a means of rest and renewal amidst the business of life. We explore where his love for reading began, how it impacts his daily life, and which books have shaped his ministry and personal walk with the Lord. He also shares how his PLACE profile helps explain this unique passion and how it fits into his broader calling. But more than just a conversation about books, this episode is an invitation to reflect on your own replenishment. What restores your energy when you feel depleted? What activity helps you slow down and reconnect with God? If you're feeling the weight of constant output, this episode will encourage you to find what fills you back up—and to make space for it in your everyday life.
